A 4-GPU Threadripper PRO workstation, start to finish. Threadripper PRO 9975WX (32C) 4x RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Max-Q (384GB VRAM) 512GB DDR5 ECC 4TB PCIe 5.0 NVMe Dual 25G

768GB of RAM. 768GB of VRAM. One server. 2x AMD EPYC 9755 (256 cores) 8x RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition (768GB VRAM) 768GB DDR5 ECC Dual 200GbE Redundant 3200W youtu.be/-8efvgnZo3k

Same GPU. Same 96GB. Two very different cards. RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition (600W, passive, cooled by the chassis) vs Max-Q (300W, half the power, built for dense multi-GPU builds). Not better vs worse. Different machines.

What a 4-GPU server sounds like at full load. 🔊 4x NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition, all at 100%. Every build gets pushed this hard before it ships. *Top cover removed for filming.

384GB of VRAM in one server. 4x NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell Server Edition, 96GB each. Enough to keep a 400B model resident on a single machine. Passive cards, cooled by the chassis. Seated by hand, tested under load before it ships.

A lighter build this time, two RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell cards. 192GB of GPU memory, spaced for airflow, matched to the workload.

Installing two 1.92TB NVMe drives into a dual-EPYC server, and on a server, they don’t go flat on the motherboard like a desktop. They mount on a removable carrier at the rear of the chassis.

768GB of RAM. 768GB of GPU memory. The same number, in two completely different kinds of memory. This server runs 24 sticks of DDR5 for system memory and eight RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell cards for GPU memory, both landing at exactly 768GB.

Four NVIDIA RTX PRO 6000 Blackwell cards, unwrapped one by one before they go in. 96GB of memory each, 384GB combined once they’re all installed. The satisfying part of any build, times four.

The most satisfying step in any build. Peeling the protective film off a TRX50 WS motherboard, from the heatsinks and shrouds to the I/O shield and the back of the board.
